25/10/2018 08:26	GHF. Only fanciful because current share price is based on expected F18 performance rather than forward looking as is the norm. This situation may change once the results appear if they are in line with forecast as we are led to believe. If that happens we could see, based on current broker forecast of £1.64 PBT, a share price anywhere up to 14p if no further dilution. Supposing APC needed to raise another £2m for further acquisition then the 14p would fall to 12p but still an immense gain over the current share price Everyone is being cautious over Brexit but if it is to be a hard landing I believe a lot of US component companies who have appointed European distributors HQ'd in mainland Europe will need an independent UK distributor to ensure supplies to UK manufacturers continue without increased cost through duty charges. That would be quite an opportunity for someone.	rinson	Read Full Thread Reply
24/10/2018 17:12	Rinson - You are very welcome. I’d already provided several updates on valuation so took the opportunity to focus this time on the ambitions of the company. As you say 42p - assuming no further dilution - isn’t as fanciful as it may appear at the moment. :-) Kind regards, GHF	glasshalfull	Read Full Thread Reply
24/10/2018 12:23	GHF. Thanks for the write up. P/E's for Electrical companies are in the region of 20 so in three years if your profit projection comes true we should be looking at an share price of around 42p assuming no further dilution.	rinson	Read Full Thread Reply
24/10/2018 12:10	Lots of opportunities for us in the car park lighting sector and remember discussing this with Edward Ziff when he presented in Leeds for his company town centre securites. This is what they have said recently on their car parking business, but no mention of lighting upgrades.. CitiPark continues to grow revenue and profits Our car parking business goes from strength to strength and has seen income grow by 5% and profitability grow by 3.7% despite increases in business rates. We continue to innovate in technology including advances in the year in online booking, new car park management systems, and Automatic Number Plate Recognition barrier-less and cashless systems. Edwards friends at Palace Capital will be at Mello so I'll introduce them to APC.	playful	Read Full Thread Reply

22/10/2018 21:49	GHF, Excellent post. For me it's simply the fact they are in the right sector at I believe the right time. Whilst being a small company we have a good calibre of shareholders on the register and with the founder recently strengthening his support for the company that's certainly a big positive!	playful	Read Full Thread Reply
22/10/2018 18:31	Evening folks, I indicated last week that the route to growth in their Electronic Components arm was via bolt-on acquisitions. I’ve now had the opportunity to speak with the APC team and believe my understanding correct in this regard. The acquisition of Aspen brought with it a business specialising in RF & microwave components that had test & measurement equipment. I’ve mentioned previously, but they confirmed this is highly complimentary to APC & extends their offering through the ability to provide in-house testing to customers, adds additional serivice lines & importantly a larger customer base, while also synergy benefits through the combination of both companies through removal of duplicate costs, for example. This strategy in the components arm of the business has already been validated through an update confirming that the acquisition of First Byte in Jan 2018 had resulted in a revenue increase of +33% in the first 6 months following acquisition. We’ve also received a positive update on the recent Aspen acquisition which was said to be integrating, “very well” in their recent trading update. I believe APC are ideally placed to consolidate in this highly fragmented components distribution sector & I’m quite sure that a larger component business would subsequently be far more appealing to many of larger supply lines. APC believe they can grow the Components arm to a £25m revenues in 3-years via this strategy. While the Components side provides stable earnings & margins, & offers excellent bolt-on acquisition opportunities, it is clear that the APC team are observing fantastic organic growth in their Property Technology arm (Lighting, IoT& Performance Measurement) and in their Time Sync arm. Forecasts estimate cica. +25% organic growth in both Property Tech & Time Sync. APC confirmed very ambitious targets in growing the Property Tech side of the business organically to c.£20m revenue business in 3 years & growing time sync - also organically - to c.£3m rev also in this time period. So essentially they are looking to triple the size of the business on a 3 year view to c.£50m, and I’d hope it will be delivering PBT of c.£5m at this juncture. I came away v impressed with the ambition & drive of the company, but would caution that I have a vested interest & have built a decent sized shareholding. Therefore a reminder that I’m clearly talking my own book. In fact I added to my position today at a small discount to July’s placing price. Delighted that other investors will have the opportunity to meet the APC team in 5-weeks time at the Mello London event, when they can evaluate the investment case at first hand & meet with other investors. Kind regards, GHF	glasshalfull	Read Full Thread Reply

18/10/2018 11:19	GHF though you can't read this certainly it isn't personal - just musings over the odd disconnect between posters thoughts on apc and the actual share price performance. The share price is down circa 15% from year high to today's low despite of improvements in trading.	ronwilkes123	Read Full Thread Reply
18/10/2018 08:04	Insider6 - I always consider management & broker expectation as one & the same but agree that it would be far more straightforward if statements simply stated this. During the placing & acquisition of Aspen it was apparent that the Components arm of the business (60%) provides stable earnings but did not provide APC with the same degree of organic growth as either Property Technology or Time Sync do. Hence route to growth is through small bolt-on acquisitions. APC currently estimate cica. +25% organic growth in both Property Tech & Time Sync & while the acquisition of Aspen brings with a number of benefits (I’ve alluded to these in a number of previous posts) it also opens up the prospect of organic growth from new lines as they attract new partners & cross-sell into the expanded customer base. Kind regards, GHF	glasshalfull	Read Full Thread Reply

18/10/2018 07:41	We all know life is tough at the moment - there is Brexit uncertainty and the general level of job insecurity and the worry about pension planning never mind the worry about what will happen to the world that our children have to live in going forward with the increased global threats from rogue states etc etc One of life's pleasures is to follow your investments and see what is being said and when you see there has been a post on ADVFN you get excited. Is there a post with some useful background information on the company or the market that may help us with our investing for example Then you see the post has been made by Ron Wilkes and the excitement level rises further - the fingers tremble on the keyboard - what can he have to say that will help us all in our investing, what incisive comment has he got today. It is all too much - today he has told us that until the share price goes up it will stay the same. Hard to state just how excited I am about the next post. Thanks	harrogate	Read Full Thread Reply
18/10/2018 07:27	Insider6 that is an excellent post - but I'm afraid there is a severe disconnect between the current share price and company prospects - until the share price begins to reflect the positivity by beginning moves upwards then apc share price will remain in the doldrums imo	ronwilkes123	Read Full Thread Reply
